Manually request garbage
collection

You can manually request that
the JVM perform garbage collection. Make sure that full garbage
collection is necessary before selecting it on a server instance. When
you perform garbage collection, the JVM often examines every living
object in the heap.

To request garbage
collection:

If you have not already done so, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Lock & Edit (see Use the Change Center).

In the left pane
of the Console, expand Environment >
Servers.

On the Summary of Servers page, select the
server instance for which you will request garbage collection.
